Since I live in the People’s Republic of California, I am not allowed to carry a loaded gun in my car. That’s why, between the door and the seat of my truck, I have a piece of a shovel handle about two feet long, resting there if I need it. If a Bogdanoff tried something similar with me, he’d be in for a really big surprise.

That’s most likely illegal. I had a 4 D-cell flashlight confiscated by a CHP officer years ago, as a “dangerous club” Said I could have any light that couldn’t be used as a weapon. Now I carry a “Spetznaz Shovel” (Cold Steel) I checked the law and and talked to a cop about it. Since the car doesn’t have a trunk I’m allowed by law to carry it in the passenger compartment. Need it to dig out of sand and snow.Gettin’ time to move.

I have an old fashioned flat tire iron that has a sharpened spade end that my grandfather gave me. that’s the backup in case my ruger sr9c jams

A good old fashioned Louisville slugger woulda done the trick ! Some knee caps would have exploded.

That’s most likely illegal.

Well, since the alternative is quite possibly the loss of my life, the choice seems rather simple. I don’t advertise the implement; it’s just there if I need it.

The small shovel does look rather attractive though…

How much you wanna bet the flashlight is now part of that officer’s personal belongings?…

I have to laugh at their reasoning for the flashlight. In my case, I’m in my early fifties so I’ve likely lost a wee bit in the strength department, and when I need an officer, I’m 100% sure they’re going to be there to put the tarp over my body as opposed to stopping the criminal before anyone gets hurt.

I live in North Carolina. I wold have released my Glock 19 from my Blackhawk holster and fixed the laser site on the guys head and pulled the trigger. But that’s just me.

XX I don’t advertise the implement; it’s just there if I need it. XX

Seems like an advertisement…..imho.

Oh if ONLY this fat POS had tried that with my dad or myself I would take GREAT pleasure in shooting that thug right in the FACE. Consequences be damned. As a veteran, I am SICK to death of what my country has become. I cannot believe that civil disruption has not occured on a huge level nationwide. But I live in a rural setting, it will get lots worse in urban areas before it gets that bad here. But just in case, my XD45 stays right close to me for just such an occasion. I’ll be danmed if I will live in fear, in my own country, of thugs like this piece of $hit.

A double tap to the chest would have taken the rage right out of the bastard.

Zubin hasn’t been able to take down his facebook page. He ‘likes’ Erykah Badu whose bio says ‘is a community activist, holistic healer, doula, vegan, recycler, and conscious spirit.’

An 83 year old man isn’t likely to have protected himself even if he got out of the car with a gun in his hand. He probably didn’t realize he was followed, and probably was shocked and confused when confronted from behind.
Someone who would attack an old man over some traffic incident is a danger to everyone and needs to be charged with attempted murder and locked up. Unless he’s deportable, in which case, deport him.
